Approach it like supporting rman catalogs:

one schema per supported version within the same database, e.g.:
perfstat817
perfstat920
perfstat101

you're going to have to disable constraints during import if you use exp/im=
p.
beware of using direct=3Dy with exp on 10.1.0.3 (bug).

partitioning the larger tables would be an excellent idea.
perhaps you might even want to export the data as a transportable tablespac=
e.

I looked at this long ago, but then was cured of CTD so I never completed i=
t.
